When it comes to vintage brass decor, one of the hottest collectible pieces on the market right now is pineapple decor. Brass pineapples started REegaining their popularity over a year ago and although vintage styles are the best, big box brands have recognized the trend and are beginning to knock-off the designs in other materials and finishes.
Pineapples have always be the symbol of hospitality and here in the south pineapple images can be found on just about every type of home decor you can imagine. Vintage brass pineapples add a new twist to decor because they are classic and traditional while at the same time fun and whimsical. Here’s some inspiration for you…

Since brass pineapple decor is steadily going up in price and has become highly collectible, I recommend you keep your eyes peeled at thrift stores and flea markets these pieces. And don’t pass up a tarnished or oxidized piece because a little Bar Keepers Friend or Brasso will work wonders on the finish.
